Find 5-Star Hotels in Nikko

"Not only did we receive excellent service during our stay, but their flexibility in accommodating our individual requests truly set them apart from other hotels – it was a world of difference. Highly recommend."

"This was a spontaneous trip! I was on a business trip in Tokyo and had a weekend off. A friend recommended Nikko, and Xiaomoushu recommended the Nikko Sanctuary Garden Hotel. I booked a hotel for the next night, bought my train tickets, and headed out to Nikko early in the morning! Travel is full of challenges and surprises. Putting that aside, this hotel was truly satisfying! From Tobu Nikko Station, it's about a ten-minute taxi ride for 1,600 yen (about 80 yuan). You can also arrange a hotel pick-up a day in advance. We arrived at the hotel at 11:30 pm, so check-in wasn't until 3 pm. No problem, I just dropped my suitcase off and had the taxi driver, who hadn't left yet, take me to the World Heritage Toshogu Shrine. After a four-hour trek, I returned to the hotel, had a welcome drink, and went upstairs to rest. I was stunned by the beauty of the room (see pictures for details!) Thanks to my Ctrip friends for their highly recommended breakfast and dinner. It turned out to be worth the extra 300 yuan for two breakfasts and two dinners. It was like eating at a Michelin restaurant for free. I was so moved that I cried! Even though I was traveling alone. But even if I only had dinner for 300 RMB, it was absolutely worth it! The hotel designer was there that day, and we had a great time chatting. He's a classic music lover and a romantic at heart. He even designed a butterfly made of leaves 🍂🍃 for the menu cover and hand-painted the text on the plates. What a talent! The geta clogs for sale in the hotel lobby are also beautiful. They're said to be made by a renowned artisan. I bought a pair. I won't necessarily wear them, but I'll keep them as a work of art! 😊 Breakfast was early. Since check-out was at 10:00, I chose the latest available at 8:30 AM. I managed to get up, and then I was surprised by the breakfast, my friends. Make sure to order both breakfast and dinner. For that price, you'd only get a steak dinner! 😂 After checking out, I took the shuttle bus to Tobu Station. After checking in to store my large luggage, I took the express bus to Chuzenji to see the waterfalls and enjoy the lake. I think I'll have to stay two more days next time! This trip was perfect, Shelter Garden, see you next time!"

"The hotel was great, but it would have been even better if there was a direct bus service from central Tokyo. Taking the Spacia train is expensive, and a regular train takes four hours, so a dedicated bus would definitely make me want to visit more often. The food was especially delicious, and everything else was excellent too."

"During the recent three-day autumn foliage season, rooms in Nikko were extremely difficult to book, especially balcony rooms with views of Nantaiyama and Chuzenji Lake. This time, I checked in at noon and requested an upgrade to a lake view room, and luckily, one became available on the 5th floor, the top floor. The balcony of the room offered a breathtaking lake view! Although the price was high, it was truly amazing! Environment: Prime location near Chuzenji Lake, with its own dedicated station. The pier, lakeside, and Kegon Falls are all within walking distance. Service: Top-notch. From check-in to introductions, turndown service, and breakfast the next day, the staff were impeccably at home! They now offer twice-daily shuttle service from Nikko Station. Truly fantastic! Facilities: Complete with all amenities, including a private onsen (hot spring), and state-of-the-art bathing and skincare facilities. Cleanliness: Spotless, and the public areas are impeccably beautiful. Staying here is like living inside an oil painting, except for the price. But this is just one example! The purpose of making money is to achieve Ritz-Carlton freedom."

"The Kinugawa Golden Valley Hotel includes breakfast and dinner. It is very cost-effective. I like the grapefruit wine here. The environment is also very elegant. The whole service is convenient, the transportation is convenient, and the friend introduces it."

"After two days, eating out in the area was a dreadful problem. It was both unpalatable and hard to find (they closed early). The hotel's food was also quite unpalatable, but at least they offered à la carte options, so I wasn't critical. The supermarket was at least a half-hour drive away, and the road was winding...too difficult. The hotel itself was quite basic, with two different types of hot springs. It was a pretty pristine environment...monkeys pooped on my balcony every day...never happened to me when I stayed in Kamikochi or Aomori."
